i love to Doodle..........

I have set the weekly challenge over @ the BOXX and its a Doodle Challenge..... I want you to show me your Doodling..... it really is totally fun! So if you want a head start feel free to scrap lift one of my designs. Now is the time to show me your tricks with your doodling pens!

"Little Princess Holly"



"Me and Joey"

My Tips on Doodling:

1: Always doodle a draft copy - this way you can work out where the photo goes.
2: Doodle in pencil first - says a lot of mistakes.
3: Outline your doodles with a good gel pen. Rub out the pencil lines.
4: Color in with water color paints or pencils, felt tips, colored pencils, pastel crayons and acrylic paints - just water the acrylics down.
5: Now this is where you add the finer details of the doodles - those are the dashers, spots extra lines etc.
......................And last just have fun with it - Go with the flow!!!!!

Thanks....Mwah...xxx

Challenge blog.....

"Believe"


Here's my take on the White with 1 challenge blog... 1 x white - (dominant color) with 1 x Navy & 1 x Stars. I have had these chipboard Bella stars for a year so I am glad I have used them up along with some old Kaiser rub-ons plus an old plastic flower I found which I just trimmed up to sit flat on the LO, some denim from old jeans, hand cut scallop foam boarder and felt butterflies. So go check it out and play along too!

Cheers..... Mwah xx
